And this turd (edgar) has to exist... why...?
I mean, she's fine without him; our wonderful MC has no need of this... useless fucking Kevin butting in! He is seriously just a male Karen (known, sometimes, as a "Kevin"), and she doesn't even have any need to be polite, honestly; sure, it's technically "his land," but I'd bet he could lose that shit tuit-fuckin-suite with a single royal audience from the MC.
She's a complete person without him; why add him on?
Or is it just the Japanese societal ideal idea that females must have male accompaniment to ensure they don't think they are equal humans beings?
Cos that's not reality, even if a lot of men think that... and it really feels like that's the extremely forced reasoning for his entirely lame existence.
